Hey a foutage of mouth more from our Nicolas, a ...

Before the UN, Nicolas Sarkozy revived the idea of ​​a tax on financial flows

(...)

Sarkozy has announced that France would grant over the next three years 180 million additional euros to the Global Fund to fight against AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis. Which, translated the director of the Fund, Michel Kazatchkine, will buy 12 million nets per year 600 000 or treat AIDS.

While welcoming this announcement, the non-governmental organization Oxfam took the liberty of adding that "France has taught us to be wary of generous announcements". "What President Sarkozy does not specify is that half of this amount pledged to the Global Fund can be counted in the G8 initiative in favor of maternal and child health announced in June," said Sébastien Fourmy, d 'Oxfam-France. By increasing its contribution to the Global Fund, France, with the same funds, pays part of its G8 bill, and recycles its announcements without saying so. " "We do not have the right to take refuge behind the economic crisis to do less," said the head of state, urging all industrialized countries to follow France's example.

INCIDENTAL SPEECHES

Nicolas Sarkozy has also delivered a new plea for a tax on financial transactions to meet the MDG financing needs and is committed to defend the idea during his presidency G20, starting in November and the G8, from January 2011. Spanish Prime Minister José Luis Zapatero, aussidéclaré favor of this tax, still controversial even if it is mentioned in the draft final declaration of the summit.

Taxes, TAXES, TAXES!

Cancel the debts of the world simply
let us return this virtual money to the "investors" and basta

It may be simplistic, but it must be radical to settle the problem

most harmed will be the ones causing the problem Image

Sure, but you have to be smart ...
Either ALL people to the streets and paralyze the country screaming that they all go!

Either we attack them with their weak point ... the banks.
If tomorrow 7% of investors were going to see their banker, withdrew ALL their economy to put them under the mattress, banks would go bankrupt.

Here are some ideas to question the functioning of a society ...

It's been a long time since I thought about it: but what interest for the people in fine? Without the banks nothing turns ... and if you fall in love, it is taken by others ...

The 7% come from? Reserve coeficient? Currently it is 1 / 16 I think ... and the central bank wants to put 1 / 12 (a shame after the banksters).

I was talking about these numbers at the FR2 JT a few days ago, amazing ... : Shock:

especially since it is not the small people who have the most money in the bank

those who have more money did not interest demolish the system has, btw no one of interest to demolish the system until we have a better idea to do better!

in the idea to do better for the one who has money available: directly lend to small business who need to invest, instead of entrusting the banks that invest in the other side of the world by causing burst the local company

I think the "weak point" to attack ... is us.
The government is only the grotesque representation of the lack of interest of the citizens of our country.
The question to ask is this: do you really think people want a better world?
